Not in 284, but I am currently developing a load using 2208 in 8x57. The chrony results are good (C.V < 1%) was hoping to get some groupings this weekend.

I see that ADI lists 2208 for most...

Ok thanks. Will give that a go tomorrow

Hi All,

I'm trying to reload a few 8mm cartridges for a Yugoslavian M48. The brass I have is a mixture of S&B, Winchester and Geco. The fired headspace on the brass is around 1.855 inch. So I...

The NZ deerstalkers located next door also hold public range days every second saturday of the month; info here Events

I go myself every so often. I would recommend turning up 10am sharp if you...

5 shots at 100m. The size of the grid is 1 inch.

I found the same with factory ammo with the 50gr V-Max as well, but so far havent been able to find the sweet spot with my reloading. Did you rifle have any factory bedding? Mine has a blob of...

I have one but 1:12. Best combo I've found so far is Sierra 55gr SBT projectiles seated to 0.005" from the lands and 23.5gr N133. Get about 20mm 5 shot groups at 100m.

Yeah at the moment it is, I'm only focussing on .223 for starters. I'm sure lee sells shell holders/pilots for most calibers, unless you're shooting something really oddball

Thats definately an option, but this way is much more stable/less awkward. And I dont need to deal with batteries etc

Personally, I think those types of case trimmers are overpriced for what they are, so made my own.

Basically its a stepper motor with a $12 drill chuck...

Hey mate, have you got a map to the range? I may swing by with the CZ in tow. Also, what are the shooting distances?

Full and unopened soda bottles are quite firm - it would take a fair bit to pierce (for an air rifle) - say 20 ft.lbs? or 10% of the muzzle energy at 1000 yards. The projectile will be at a crawl at...

Yeah Kilwell is the importer. I tried to get a full stock version of the CZ527 but it was going to be a long wait. Saw a second hand one sell on trademe a few weeks ago for over $2000 (RRP $1699).

Go on then...

I've shot about 400 rounds through my CZ527 at the range. The action definately started off a wee bit rough, and would bind unless it was very well lubricated, more than what I would have normally...

We could always make to gongs smaller! ; )

No I haven't signed up just yet. I sent in an enquiry through the website and never heard back, so that's as far as it went

Also keen for some gongs in south Canterbury. Can't wait until the new range is finished

The HW97 is an excellent air rifle. The Leupold is good too, but there are more cost effective options for hunting. I would suggest a 3-12x mag in the "Leapers" (UTG) range

Thanks mate. Yeah I definately will tour around abit. I know GC have a reputation for high prices but they do have quite a wide range

Hi dogmatix,

Yeah probably a bit of hunting as well. I'm doing a bit of reading at the moment about what might be suitable. My starting point was a Steyr Pro Hunter. Some say it's ugly (not really...

Hi All,

I have been target shooting with air rifles (field target) for about 3 years but recently got my firearms licence. I'm looking for a new rifle in .223 for target practice (~3k budget). Any...
